Fellrangers

Though a military instiution, The Fallencrest Fellrangers are a very different organization than what would be expected by the surface races of a military force. Founded in the earliest days of the city, the goal of its members has been to support the community be accomplishing what average person cannot. Rather than war, Fellrangers are trained to defend the city and its people from danger in the most general sense. They battle wild creatures which reach the populated areas of the city, fight fires, triage and treat disease, orchestrate disaster recovery efforts, and even provide manpower to construction and other public works. Every ranger is expected to help at each moment with the most difficult task which they are able to accomplish.
Issue triage is performed by the highest ranking organizational staff, who communicate out to the ranger forces - by way of messenger, spell, and sending stone - lists of tasks that need to be accomplished. These are often collated on notice boards throughout the city, so that passing rangers without more sophisticated communication channels can assess and fulfill duties as they are able. There are unofficial guilds within the Fellrangers, staffed by members with similar capabilities and often headed by one of the core communication staff responsible for receiving the orders from the topmost organizational staff as the first line of triage. While there is a strong camaraderie between members of these groups, there is rarely any more than healthy competitive spirit between members with different skillsets, and all members work together whenever an issue mandates a significant enough crisis to warrant it.
Members of the Fellrangers come and go with the years, some staying on for the rigorous training and a few years of service and some maintaining a centuries-strong pedigree of fine work recognized across the Periphery. Virtually every member of Fallencrest society interacts with the Fellrangers, and nearly all have served at least some duration of their time in the city as a member of the organization. The challenges that they face range from the heroic to the catastrophic, but every member is crucial to the survival of the city and its people.

History

When the original Dark Elves migrated further underground after the end of the reign of Dragonkind, they quickly recognized the need for self-sufficiency in a hostile environment where they could not rely on anyone to save them from danger. As a result, the most talented banded together to create an organization which watched other the Fallencrest in its formative years, ensuring that nothing could be allowed to harm the people within the walls. As time went on, and industry and economy flourished, greater and greater variety of skills and responsibilities were required, and the Fellrangers utility grew right alongside the city itself.
